He felt guided to re-xnd to the call to service as a phy-cian. But right down to the st hours of his life as a physician p felt that he was in a sacred fierce. He was doing the work that od wanted him to do. He was fol-wing his Master Jesus in a servicehealing to human bodies and of inistering love to minds and souls. “The words fff sympathy that ive been expressed by hundreds of *ple, I the flowers that are here •day telling their message of ap-•eciation, the company of people at ils service, all testify to the fact iat this splendid Minister ofod served faithfully and well.”“Of course it is impossible foe me, s Pastor, as it is impossible for u, his loved ones and fellow phy-cians and friends, to put into ords our great appreciation of his illful and consecrated service in ir behalf. We feel more than we n express.”The Rev. Mr. Speer continued s tribute by recalling the simplencerity of Dr. Penoyar’s reli-ous faith, which, he said, was unded not upon the modern the-ies of the physical scientists, with hich he was familiar, but upon limn need and human experience, id upon his own experience in eking the help of God for him-If and in the helping of others, lis faith found expression in the | actor’s loyalty, loyalty to the eals of his profession, which hadmed for him recognition from his sociates in the Kalamazoo Acad-ny of Medicine, and loyalty to •rsonalities as well as to princi-fellowof thethe various grac to and includingsuccessively principal and superintendent, While markedly successful as a teacher, he felt strongly the call to another form of service and, as the Rev. Mr. Speer recalled, chose the path of medicine.He entered the Medical School of the (University of Michigan, from which he was graduated in 1903, being the president of the class in Senior year. He was a member of the surgical staff of the School and the University Hospital during his final year. He decided to embark in practice at South Haven, where he already enjoyed aconsiderable acquaintance, and,came here shortly after graduation. His skill and sympathy and scien- 1 tific attainments quickly won for him a practice which has grown j steadily, and which he has shared with his son, Dr. Cecil L. Penoyar, since the latter completed his course at the father’s Alma Mater. Four years ago, they purchased the William Jacobs property on Hur- j on street and converted the house j into a hospital, which they named Memorial Hospital in honor of the memory of their daughter and sister, the late Mrs. Frieda Penoyar Hem-enway.Dr. Penoyar was a member of them. - 'X . 4 *' ■ •Kalamazoo Acadeihy of Medicine, the Michigan Medical Society, and the American Medical Association.
